Service provided was very unprofessional. I recommend you waist your hard earned money elsewhere!

I have eaten here for dates, friendly get togethers, and I had my grad party here last year. This is one of the most wonderful restaurants in the entirety of New England. The food is so fresh and vibrant, feels like they grow it around the corner! Inventive chefs that make miracles out of locally-sourced ingredients, staff that are always warm and welcoming. The ambience cannot be beat- the plants and open air concept let air flow throughout. It can get a little noisy for the same reason, but it’s a small price to pay for a menu so wonderfully crafted. They will have my patronage for as long as they are open- hopefully for a long, long time!

Bayberry Gardens was a modern, accessible place to experience fine dining without the rigidity of more traditional restaurants. The space is open, lush, and welcoming with greenery and open views of the kitchen space on one side of the dining area and views of downtown Providence on the other. We really felt like we were in a garden. The drinks were fantastic and our server was helpful with recommendations. Our appetizer was the hush puppies which we almost annihilated before remembering to grab a picture. For our entree we chose the salmon and lumache, both were artfully prepared. The sausage in the pasta was flavorful and well complemented by the sauce. The fish was perfectly cooked, nestled in a bed of succotash that felt seasonal and fresh. We had no room for dessert but didn’t miss the sweets after such a delicious meal. Our experience was wonderful, only notes for others is that the tasting menu option must be selected by both diners in the party, one of you can’t opt in while the other orders from the main menu. Our server was helpful and explained the menu choices well, gave good drink recommendations and had well timed check ins but was not very warm, not a bother for many, might have been just an off night for them. We loved every bite, will be back!

My spouse, Mia, and I went to Bayberry Garden to celebrate her birthday. Lauren was our server, and they were amazing. We started out with some cocktails, and selected the tasting menu. We let Lauren know that we were open to her wine suggestion, and she brought over a few different bottles, and went through each bottle and why either one would be a fun bottle to compliment our dinner.
The food was delicious and we really enjoyed the breadth of each course. We started out with several different seafood appetizers. The bluefish pate with house made chips was a favorite of both Mia and me. The roasted carrots with the parsnip puree was amazing. The pasta dish with crab was wonderfully seasoned, and the kitchen really out did themselves! We really appreciate how well we were taken care! Kudos to the entire team! It was a lovely birthday celebration, and we appreciate you!

This place was excellent and since we were staying downtown, it is an easy walk from several hotels. We grabbed some drinks and oysters at the bar while we waited for our table. Reservations are suggested. The hush puppies appetizers were great. Fresh catch options are highly recommended since the fish was cooked just right and complimented by tasty sides.

I recently celebrated my birthday here at Bayberry Garden for dinner and I can confidently say it did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere welcomed us with warmth and inclusivity. The beautiful greenery and decor created such an amazing ambiance. The staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive. They took the time to explain the menu in detail, showcasing their knowledge and passion for the food. This level of service truly made our experience 10x better.
We opted for the “let us cook for you” option, similar to a tasting menu, which turned out to be a fantastic choice. Each dish was thoughtfully planned out and beautifully presented. We were surprised at the uniqueness of each dish that came out to us. The menu was a pleasant surprise and the flavors were something no other restaurant can compete with. Each dish reflects the freshness of the ingredients and the care put into each plate. You can taste how fresh these ingredients were.
To start, we enjoyed oysters drizzled with strawberry vinaigrette, mini hush puppies, yellowfin tuna crudo with egg yolk jam and yuzu, and a smoky fish dip served with potato crisps. The smoky flavor of the dip paired perfectly with the crisps.
Next, we had a delicata squash salad with invierno cheese and brined almonds, which was a delightful surprise—I’ve never tasted anything quite like it. This was followed by grilled shishito peppers with a vibrant green basil sauce. The peppers were seasoned to perfection, and the hearty sauce complemented them so well.
For the entrees, we tried the duck sausage pasta, which was the best pasta I’ve ever had. The dish was light, with a sauce that didn’t overwhelm. Unlike many pasta dishes that leave you feeling heavy, this one left me wanting more! The crunchy breadcrumbs added a wonderful texture. The conchiglie was cooked al dente and everything about dish was perfect. 10/10 I would recommend.
Our second entree was a black sea bass with chimichurri sauce and bell peppers. The fish was fresh, meaty, and packed with flavor. For those who love fish, this would be the perfect entree for you.
To finish, we indulged in an Eton mess sundae, that had vanilla ice cream, raspberry puree, meringue, and whipped cream. The meringue was soft and melted in your mouth, and the blend of tart and sweetness was the perfect ending to our meal.
Overall, Bayberry and the chef’s selection menu provided a memorable evening with exceptional food and warm hospitality. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy a fantastic meal. I don’t think any other tasting menu can beat theirs. The quality and amount of food for the price was truly worth it. I left full and extremely happy! I would 100% return back and try out another tasting menu!

Came here for my partner and I's anniversary, and it's difficult to describe our night as anything but pristinely perfect. It was my first time dining here as I'm from out of town, and I work in the hospitality industry myself, and I was blown away by the service and attention to detail of every aspect of our night. We chose to go with the "cook for us" coursed menu and it does NOT disappoint. Every dish was phenomenal and carefully curated from appetizer to dessert. The wine list is also so intuitive and leads you to exactly what you're looking for (we had a bottle of the Italian sparkling orange glera/moscato blend, I absolutely recommend). I'm excited to try the cocktails on my next visit, they look creative and fun. The restaurant itself is very pretty inside, decorated with an array of real plants and big windows to allow for bright natural lighting, and the music was great. As I said, service was insanely attentive from the entire staff. I've never felt more like royalty at a restauarant before. Worth every penny and I hope to return soon. A++

I don't give things 5 starts very often. But this place was worth it. The ambiance was astounding. The whole place felt alive. There was beautiful plants everywhere and the waitstaff was some of the best I've had. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. I got a Celery Daiquiri to start; it was very fresh and crisp and had a nice layer of citrus. The oysters were so fresh, properly cleaned; not gritty or too briny. The lemon mignonette added the perfect acidity to them. Their house made hot sauce was delicious and I wish I could buy a gallon jug of it to put on everything. It's was very fun getting to pick and choose how to top my oysters. The Mushroom Fritto Misto was outstanding. The mushrooms giving a nice umami to the dish. The coating had so much flavor and a nice crunch. Then you dip it in the vadouvan aioli, it was a flavor explosion. Some bites were a bit clunky as they stuck together during frying. But overall incredibly tasty. The salmon was phenomenal! The skin was crisped to utter perfection. Hearing that wonderful crunch with every bite. The salmon itself was flaky, salty and sweet, and melted in my mouth. The summer succotash coupled with yellow pepper coulis, the crispy skin and flaky salmon was so pleasing to the palate. The yellow pepper coulis added a perfect creaminess to the dish.

We had our rehearsal dinner at Bayberry Garden. I worked with Natalie on the menu, space and timing and everything was incredible. We had a lot of foodies in our party and everyone was raving about the food and overall atmosphere of the restaurant by the end of the night. The team was incredibly kind and thoughtful when working with the multiple allergies in our group. The crudo, grilled caesar, swordfish and smoked chicken were standouts. We can't wait to dine again!
